This was everything I needed! Thank you! We bought furniture last year with a couch and a love seat just like this, and twice now, I've had to bend the metal near one of the scissors joints back in place. After doing it a second time this morning, I was worried we paid for a brand new sofa that would be broken after a year. But after looking online and seeing they sell the whole reclining mechanism for not much plus with your video, I'm stoked that I'm gonna be able to replace it! I always appreciate people who take the time to make videos like this that show us what we need to do! Thanks, my man!
By watching this video, me and my daughter 2 women were able to disassemble my 3 seater recliner and moved them down by pieces from my second floor apartment. So relieved. Thank you so much
Most cases the mechanism just requires to be refasten the cable -pin to the side button or the spring trigger , replacing the entire assembly is not necessary .. the constant movement of recliner causes this .
If you plan to do a La-Z-Boy sofa make sure you have an impact driver and an impact T-27 bit. This T-27 size is not common. I just converted our recliner sofa to a recliner loveseat for space saving reasons.
Hello, need advice from anyone. We have a special needs, blind and stroke affecting left side. His daily use of a catnap per rocker and heated and massage use is not less than 8-9 hours per day as his physical abilities have declined over the years. Literally impressed by this keeping him in fairly good shape. Our problem is him wearing parts out and after warranty local company would provide used scrapped springs nationwide company was to cover warranty for the past years and weeks long to months long to solve issue. He needs and wants to rock and enjoys the heat in fall and winter and the tactile feeling of the vibrator. Where can I get help with supplies and how to install. Limited income and 60’s so not swift on computer’s but have enjoyed different videos on TH-cam at times and anger springer broke. Any direction appreciated.
I have an Ashley pushback recliner where the footrest mech is jammed on one side and won’t fold. The part that rides on the footrest scissor is stuck between the bars. Does it ride on the bottom or the top of the bar? Suggestions? Tried prying with a heavy screwdriver but can’t get it from being wedge against the bar
By taking that off would I be able to recline the chair manually? My Mom hastily cut the power wire and the remote wire and threw them away. She thought the chair didn't work, but it did. Now I have it and I'm trying to figure out how to recline it by hand. If you could help me I would HIGHLY appreciate it! Thank you very much, Kelly.
have a single recliner and a black spring has broken and gone through the material at the back.. can't find anywhere what it is and how to fix/replace it
Sir, thank you for showing how to remove this undercarriage mechanism. Tomorrow I'm taking apart this beautiful 5 year old Pallisar reclining sofa, and putting it out with the garbage. It will be so much easier to get out the door in pieces. This sofa lost all of it seat support in 4 years. Sad, what a waste of money for an expensive leather sofa. I don't even have a hefty weight using it!
I have a parkmead recliner. The cable is fine but the mechanism became loose and fell out. Where can I find a schematic to show how to put it together again?
I need help with a piece of furniture. The company doesn't exist anymore but this was my dads recliner. He past away from Covid and I just want to fix it. Do companies use the same type mechism for underneath? It's a recliner like so many others. I just need the guts to work right.
For some reason, the bolts holding the mechanism to the bottom bar are all not the same on my particular couch. 4 are hex bolts, but the other 4 are silver circular solid bolts which I have no clue what to use to remove them as I still need something that will fit into the circular foot pad/bolt space such as the hex bolt extractor. I have NO clue why they did not use all the same bolts for the mechanism. Any suggestions on what I may need to remove them? I believe it is a carriage bolt where they should have placed hex bolts and there isn't much room to get an extractor in there.
Where can I find a replacement tension spring for my recliner? It looks like its an overall 6.25" / 12" extended or installed. Its a 34 turn coil With a long hook on one end & the hooks are 90 degrees from each other and its a .65" diameter coil. Oh and the length of just the coil without the hooks is 3.25". Amazon doesnt appear to have this spring
I have no idea what the chair I have is called but I can’t fit it through my doorway and have nobody to help me get the back off, maybe I’ll figure it out after plenty more panic attacks 😅👍
Now, anyway I could do this but convert a non recliner sofa INTO an electric mechanism? I have 4 seater but only the two end seats are recliners. The 2 middle ones are fixed. I can retrofit with electrics you can buy from Amazon.
Very informative video but I cannot get past the first part where you take out the first 4 screws to remove it from the frame. it is like they are glued in!
plus, I did not receive the entire bottom as a replacement. I only got the side pieces so in addition to your instructions, I need to separate the side (mechanism) pieces from the 3 cross bars, including the round one that is connected with a cotter pin.
Glad you found the video useful, and it sounds like your screws are anchored. We suggest contacting the dealer you bought the recliner from and getting information from them about replacements or instructions.
Mine dont need all that. I'm not sure my parts name. Lazy boy electronic recliner, USB port counsel. Footrest got caught on something going down. A safety mechanism popped out both sides. A little clip, with lil arc to go between the arms, under, in front. Can I send you email somewhere, to show u pic of part. It looks like just snap back on, but I don't want to force it. No videos, shows my part, etc. I don't even need to remove springs. Looks very simple, but I don't want to force. I don't want service to come out. Ty
Hi, I hope you coul read his, I have the same mecanism but It doesn't close at all, the trigger as far as I can see Is Ok, and I dont have idea why is not closing at all. I hope you could help me!
We have the recliners with the round base, they are called rocking/swiveling models I am guessing. They are pretty wobbly from side to side when you are sitting in one. Needless to say the cheap square metal on the bottom snapped in two and it would no longer lock in place properly. Chair was raised higher towards the rear then our non broken model, while reclining my girlfriend almost fell out the back of it when it lowered near to the floor. Sad they make such "cheap" mechanisms out of what looks like galvinized or painted aluminum brackets. However we are not going to pay La-Z-Boy prices at $2,000 a piece as some say they still use particle board and they are all MADE IN CHINA and not in the USA. The chair itself is in good shape the mechanism is cheap and not sure if it's worth replacing it. I have seen other models with square bottoms so they sit better on the floor, La-Z-Boy also has small legs on each corner to keep them from being wobbly side to side. Not sure if I could find something comparable for less as there are so many "mfgs" and probably get their models from the same Chinese factory everyone else does.
This video is very helpful. Unfortunately we bent the mechanism on my leather reclininig loveseat. I was icing my leg couldn't push the foot rest back in myself. My husband was helping me get it back to upright,but I forgot to release the latch on the side. Now it won't close at all. It was about $2000 more than 20 years ago, so its good quality. Do we have to buy a new mechanism or can the other one be removed and straightened. Where would we get a new mechanism? We would be happy to pay for your assistance
unfortunately these mechanisms are very unique to the make and model that we are unable to sell to the public. We suggest checking with who you originally bought the piece from.
Thanks for taking the time to do the video. Most folks don't realize how simple it is to break down a couch. I have a worn out 4302-2 Leggett and Platt mech on my own coach. Any guidance on who I can purchase a replacement from?
I'm looking for a drive tube that measure 30 5/8 inches for a Lane recliner. I haven't been able to find one on the internet. Would you have any suggestions?
I purchased a Homestretch recliner model 1069316 recliner last year. The other day the spring on the left side of the recliner (as you sit in it) that keeps the leg part down or up broke. I called Homestretch's office and explained my problem. They sent me two springs (I only needed one). There were no instructions on which connection points the spring goes on. There are several you can use but if you use the wrong one you can break the new spring. I have called Homestretch and ask for a diagram 3 times now and no one would bother sending me the diagram. I don't know who is running Homestretch but their customer service is crap. Anyone else have problems with this company. Is this a public company or private? Who is the president and what is his direct phone number.
@@purchasingwarehouse6346 The company is called Homestretch. Here is their webpage. www.homestretchfurniture.com/ They are really helpful, talk to the customer service depart or leave a name and phone number. When I talked to them they returned my call. They were short handed at that time. Take some pictures of the tags of the furniture to get the model information Hope this helps.
Repair tech here, yes about 99% of them do however different manufacturers have different style back releases, lazy boys have a lever that flips up, some have an o ring that pulls up, and some have clip releases like in this video
When someone uses a drill constantly in a closed workshop, a corded drill is still used often by professionals. There is a reason they still sell them, after all.
Call Lazy Boy. They sent out a repairman who was trained by them and he fixed ours in nothing flat. They are very nice and helpful. Google for phone number.
Unfortunately these mechanisms are very unique to the make and model that we are unable to sell to the public. We suggest checking with who you originally bought the piece from.

Thanks absolutely a lot. I am a 75 years old physically weak but mentally strong man. Your video helped me a lot and avoided calling somebody etc. God bless you.
why can't a person just fix the release cable? If a piece on the engine broke does it require replacing the entire entire engine...This guy fails to address the problem...which cause me to suspect THIS GUY DOES NOT KNOW WHAT THE FUCK HE IS DOING..
We are showing how to replace the mechanism in case the entire mechanism breaks. If the cable is the only thing that breaks, then you would just replace the cable of course, but if the entire mechanism is warped or faulty, then this shows how to change out that mechanism. We also have other videos about replacing the reclining mechanism release triggers and handles, with more in-depth videos planned for the future. Hope this cleared things up for you!

Impressed. I was actually able to repair my couch, which I was planning to throw out. Thanks!
Thanks for this video. I'm moving in 2 days and this video helped me to dissemble my sofa. Will be much easier to move now.
Great instructional video, thanks Mark you made it very easy.

Finding parts is the problem. I need a reclining mechanism for my 20 yr old Ashley loveseat. Release handle on the left side.
This is the perfect video I needed, where could I buy this exact mechanism?
Great Video.. Thank you for sharing. Helped me do a swap out.

Where exactly to put the screw driver to unlock the back seat. In the video it shows from a far angle and not close in angle
Are they universal? Or the size of the mechanism varies?
Thank you! this really helped me!
You saved the day... cheers
My recliner foot rest does not stay locked in place, it keeps out. What holds it in place and what do I look for to try and fix it myself?
What's the 4 bolts called to listen them from the bar? I am missing those bolts for my recliner

Would be great if you can show me how you replace the cushion on that exact recliner. I can’t seem to find anyone on TH-cam that shows that

How do you fix a recliner that footstool want lock. Already put a new leaver.
What is that machine he is using to take off the bolts?
Would it be possible to remove the normal mechanical mechanism and replace it with electric one?
